LEADER McDONALD loyally sustained i
The Liberals Go On Record On ImportantMalters
One of the most remarkable political demonstrations ever soon in tho
province of British Columbia, and
without doubt as great a personal
triumph as has been achieved by nny
poi i Heal leader in recent years,
marked the appearance of l.ilier.i'
I,Cniler .1. A. Macdonald ou the platform al the smoking concert held in
l.uhoi hall last evening in connection
with th.* Liberal convention, savs the
V 'Oliver World.
.Mi. MacdonnId's ureal record in the
local house, his personal work in ibe
recenl campaign, und his statesman-
like altitude throughout the sidings
ol the convention have won (or bim
ibe uncompromising and unswerving
devotion of Liberals fflioughout the
province and ihe ovation tendered
linn last night was hut the expression of the fcctltlg of the rank and
lib* of the party toward a leader iu
wliieli il has implicit confidence.
When Mr. Macdonald rose lo speak
he was greeted with handclapplng and
cheers which grew in strength and
fervor until the building shook. Bound
afler louml of cheers went up, then a
delegate started the lirst bars of
•For He's a .lolly flood Fellow,"
an I spontaneously the whole con-
course joined, every man vicing with
bis neighbor in doing honor lo the
lender.'
"We are not endorsing lhe recent
Oriental riot, but it certainly has
bad the effeel ol bringing home to
the |N*oplc of the British Empire
that we'do not intend standing for
the unrestricted immigration or
Orientals," said Mr. Macdonald, after
having declared himself almost overpowered hv llie splendid reception.
He had not' visited the hall lhat
evening with lhe Intention of shaking, as the evening was solely one of
social enjoyment and the smoker was
organized for the purpose of bringing
the Liberals from all over the province together. The hearty applause
ol the delegates Irom all "over the
province were due to tbe Liberal association for the entertainment und
their reception. When the great contest came, as it is likely to come
within n year, the gathering ol the
Liberals of the province would no
doubt contribute in no small degree.
Inwards Hie entire organization of
th.* Liberal party ami would assist
materially in making the record at
the next 'elections even more glorious
than that of 1004. In the next
general election, in three years from
now, the leader predicted tlie eity
would not repeat tho mistake it had
malic in not electing the Ove splendid
candidates who were defeated at the
last election, but would return them
hy handsome majorities.
"The conference is being held at a
very opportune time," continued Mr.
Macdonald. "The recent. Oriental
rots have had llu* elloct of. emphaslz-
Ing in Ih? strongest possible manner
the fact that we do not intend standing for the unrestricted immigration
nl Orientals, and while tlie affair Is
d.-cply regretted hy lift per cent of
the people nl Ihis city and provlnee,
it has shown llh' people of Eastern
Canada, the Dominion government
and the whole Briiish empire. that
we have gone on record as lK*ini_; fair-
Iv oppose.) to the Influx of Orientals.
I am glad to see that this convention
also pul Itself ou record in unmistakable terms against the eontinua-
t'on of this state of things." Tbe
applause that toll..wed the leader's
remarks was thunderous, and Indicated the cut-re approval wilh the
sentiments CJ 'i.s-,','.

Th.* present convention most unmistakably demonstrates the popularity of lhe provincial leader. His
evcrj apiwarnnco on thc\plutform has
been Ihe occasion of a rcmatkablo
outburst of spontaneous applause and
lus surest ions have h.-i-n acted upon
with great unanimity.
The whole of the day was devoted
to Hi* consideration of resolutions
preseliltd on bchall of llie s|n«cial
committee on resolutions, by John
Oliver, M. P. P., Bella, a>l of which
were adopted.
'lhe principal resolutions are us
follows:
"That -tortious of the unoccupied
.rown coal lauds of the various coal
fields of lhe province he reserved by
'.lalule, thereby enabling stale owned
end state oprrnlrd coal mines to hu
isiahlished in the public interest.
"That tbe actions ot the Liberals
in tbe local legislature, in the stand
they have taken in favor of a
iliiirrrij-u.il inquiry into the question of
irrigation, be endorsed, with the
view of adopting such legislation as
may he necessary to secure Ibe application of all available water to
agricultural lands so as to secure the
greatesl possible benefit.
"That as the federal Liberal government has already made an Inquiry, tlH'OUpll a select committee of
llie house of commons, Into the question of tin; private operation ol
telephones and telegraphs, and are in
possession of important information
which would indicate the wisdom of
the government owning and operating
such public utilities, therefore, this
convention of the Liberal party of
British Columbia declares iu favor of
llie public ownership and operation of
those Hunters under Dominion laws,
and thai uuiil the public acquisition
thereof, the commercial telegraph
systems of Canada should he brought
under the jurisdiction ot tbe railway
commission.
That Ihe provincial legislature

special session or sessions, re-pass the
Natal Act for the exclusion of undesirable immigrants, unless and until
the highest court of the realm declares smcli an act beyond the jurisdiction of the provincial legislature,
until the Dominion has passed effective exclusion measures.
That as the opinion of British Columbia gem-rally, is against the immigration of Orientals, and, as the
Liberal party of the Dominion has
Successfully excluded the Chinese, the
party should adopt an immediate
policy which will accomplish the
rime object against alt Orientals, and
(bnt iu the opinion of this convention
tlie Natal Act. which has been effective iu restricting Oriental immigration iu other Dri Irish countries, should

nv existing treaty or act which pro-

Fielding ami Brodeur, arrived at
Quebec Friday afternoon on their return from Paris. They were wel-
comed at the wharf hy a large number or prominent people, including
Premier Oouln, and were presented
with an address by tht- board of
trade iu the evening.
The board of trade, the oldest iu-
s lilu Hon ol its kind in Canada, prt-
seni<-d au address of welcome lo
Welding and Brodeur nn their return, as the address stated "from
their memorable trip abroad, in
| which ihcy contributed to the development of ttie foreign trade and ' .'. *
Ibe country in a step towards complete commercial emancipation." The
.nddress further stated thai, the
negotiation ol the trade treaty might
be considered as a new affirmation of
lentente cordlnle between France and
iKiighnid. The negotiations of tlie
j treaty places the people nf Canada
,more than ever in a position to appreciate tlie extent of the constitu-
nevei eWottal liberties conferred on the
I Dominion by Oreat Britain and tbe
'extraordinary extent and Importance
| of tlie liscal autonomy they enjoy.
Mr. Fielding, in reply, said it' was

preciale why it is that people who
come to Briiish Columbia lo live
never care lo return to the cast permanently. In fact, iu nil the number lhat 1 have known who have gone

one who has come back home to stay.

property ami remedial legislation for B. C.
against Oriental immigration was
hie demand of the largest attended
meeting ever held by the Anti-Asiatic
l-ague in Labor hall i&ni-shi, addressed hy former Governor Mclnnes, ot
lhe Yukon; City Solicitor Cowan,
and Rev. Dr. Kraser. At the close
the league wired Premier Laurier
that the public meeting unanimously
i ndorsod the resolutions of ibe
Dominion Trades Congress ami the
Provincial Liberal convention regarding the Orientals, aud also protested
against the commission to Japan because of the delay thereby.
A message was also sent Premier
.McBride requesting an immediate session of the legislature to re-enact the
Natal Ael, aud asking if Lieutenant-
(to ver nor Dunsmuir refuses his assent to the present measure, what is
the government's intention'.
Mr. Mclnnes, In bis address, said:

B. Angus and Hon. L. J. Forget
were re-elected to the directorate.
In moving lhe adoption of the annual report, the president. Sir Thos.
Shatighnessy, said unless there was
some great setback in the progress o(
the country, which there was no reason to anticipate, the company would
l.e compelled to spend further larce
sutus on expansion which would be
met hy further share issue if necessary, but for immediate requirements
there were sufficient funds on hand.
Speaking of the crop situation, he
said that in Ontario there had been a
satisfactory yield of wheat, but the
season had been an inauspicious one
for other crops. In western Canada
the backward sprtng had resulted in a
shrinVrage of 25 per cent in the wheat
crop, but owing to increase of oats
and other grains and higher prices
the farmers would receive as much for
their produce as last vear. As a result of the late harvest nnly 1,381
car'oads of wheat weie carried during
September to ports nn Lake Superior, against '1,81(8 in September.
100(1, hut in spile of this there was
no diminution in weekly earnings, and
an extraordinary rush of grain tu the
head of tlie lake was anticipated before tbe close of naviuatiirti.
Tbe president estimated that the
company still held 8,000,000 a<r.*s ut
its original agricultural land grant,
which wouhl produce Weber prices
than those heretofore realized, while
from lands in British Columbia, the
main value of which was in timber
ami minerals, a handsome return
uiiiilit be expected. By Uio end of
the season .'flit miles of canals and
ditches wouhl he completed in western irrigation blocks, serving iiu.nun
crcs at a cost of $6.50 an aire. As
hearty thanks, of the public are due
to these gentlemen lor establishing
by their conduct a fuse for extending
Uie authority of the railway commission over the te'egraph, company. The
case is already strong, but we aro

personally know, this 27th day of
May, 1007.
J, A. Arnold,
.1. P. in and for British Columbia.
In eastern Canada and the Slates
it is considered a conservative estimate that five people read every
paper issued. In Cranbrook, to be
on the safe side, we place lhc number at three, which is absolutely
safe, and that would make 8,854 readers of the Herald each week.
These circulation figures can he
verified at nny time by any advertiser who will take lhc Iroublo to go
over the subscription books or watch
the big press roll out the papers.
This is where the advertiser (.'els a
run for his money. The Herald
would like lu see every newspaper
make a sworn statcmenl of iis cir
dilation. The advertiser is entitled lo know. lie pays liis tilonev
and he should know what he Is get-

Calgary has a mock parliament.
There are provinces in Canada in the

The ina.;oiilv of the people of Canada readily ' understand Dial ihe

Is il possible thnt our old friend
D. \. Mott is contemplating the
munching of a Conservative daily at
Fernie? At least such is the rumor.
The Asiatic question should be made
n Dominion question and not a
I'arly one. But there seems to he a
disposition to mix il up in politics.
The manufacturers of Canada have
llm best wishes of the people generally of Ihis Dominion, but those good
wishes tn not j;o far enough to induce the people to overtax themselves iu the way of a high tariff
simply for llie purpose ol enriching
the manufacturer beyond a reasonable
nri (It. The consumer must lie taken
into consideration in the tariff question, and the l,iIk ahoul tariff giving
workmen high wnges has been exploded long ago in the States. There
is no tnrlrf on workmen in the
Stales, neither is Ihere one in Can-

Koherts, The rocal print Ing offices

lo the Herald0 No. Why'' Because
Ihe average .newspaper discounts its

being appointed to a civil service po-
oii under Premier McBride.
And speaking ol civil service reform, did von ever notice Ihnl il is
lways the' side that Is out tbat ad
ocales lhat measure so strongly.
Mr. Borden is making a strong play
of it for Ihe Dominion, and so are
the Liberals in Several of Hie provinces where the Conservatives are in
power. Bul you never hear Premier
MeBride, of this province, or Premier Kohl in, of Manitoba, or Premier
Scoll, nf Saskatchewan, worrying
over civil service reform. II there
l man appointed to ofliee in Alberln or Saskatchewan, he Is a Mh-
. and if Ihere is a man named
for a,position under the McBride gov-
nimeiil you can bet nil that, you
have irol that he must show Hint be
a Conservative. So'what is the
■'' (if course this talk about
il service reform makes good campaign thunder, but nobody takes any
nek in il. The people'ate getting
. wise as the politicians.
I The Kcrnie Free Press is evidently a
Liberal paper with strong Conservative leanings.
li will soon be time for lhe broom
and lhc stones, and Alderman McCowan lo urge on his side with bis
"Sweep mon, sweep."
The newspapers of llie wesi ale do
ing their part in huililing up the

And the newspaper editor who dares
to have an opinion of his own is
hound to bring down upon his head
tbe ill will of somebody. Again we
migh't remark thai dead lish never

drifts with the current has neither j
friemls nor enemies. Its lone sup-
norters are those who want lo use

papers are like tadpoles' in a silent
pond. When there is a ripple of
public opinion tbey are always found
in front ol the tipple.

Did you ever get up in the morning with a tired feeling, disgusted
with yourself, your clothing, and
everything else? Just try wearing STANFIELD'S UNDERWEAR and see if you are not
glad to get up and get dressed,
and you will feci good all day
long, and then you'd never be
mad when your clothes come
back from the [laundry, because
STANFIELD'S never shrink
and, if given a ghost of a chance,
will come out of the wash bright
and soft. Every garment guaranteed to give entire satisfaction
or we will be glad to hand your money back.

You'll want a pair of boots that
will make your long tramps easy.
We have just what you want,
made by Geo. A. Slater—a 12-
inch top Oil-taived Giant Calf
Blucher Bal. This is as near a
waterproof boot as is made of
leather. They are $7.50 per pair
and are worth every cent of it.
But it won't cost you a cent to
see them and if you buy a pair
and don't get satisfaction they
won't cost you any more than
the price for looking at them.
